I don't have the same type of card as you, but here is some specifics
from my original xorg.conf - before I installed the nVidia driver:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "nv"
VendorName "nVidia Corporation"
BoardName "NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
I am only pointing out this part because this is where our
Monitor/Driver section specifically differ
After I installed the nVidia driver, this section looks like this:
Section "Device"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "nVidia Corporation"
BoardName "NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
The only thing that really changed was the Driver, VendorName, and
BoardName.
I am wondering if your xorg.conf is somehow getting confused with two
(2) Drivers (vga, i810) being identified without corresponding BusID for
each . You BusID only appears to be in the section where the vga driver is.
I am no expert with xorg.conf or xorgcfg, but I did all of this by hand
and it is working without issue.
Try setting one or the other Driver and place everything together
instead of in separate sections.
